The day trip begins at 06.00hrs AM by picking you up from your hotel and depart to Nairobi National Park for an exciting 4-hour game viewing drive. The drive is timed to spot the big cats when they tend to be more active. Wide open grass plains and a backdrop of the city scrapers, scattered acacia bush play host to a wide variety of wildlife including the endangered black rhino, lions, leopards, cheetahs, hyenas, buffaloes, giraffes and diverse birdlife with over 400 species recorded. After your game drive, we will exit the park and enjoy a short drive to the conservation center at the David Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage. It is here that orphaned or injured baby elephants and rhinos are taken to rehabilitation in their natural habitats. Baby elephants of all ages delight guests as they feed and play. Feeding time is from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. Thereafter, we will head to Karen Blixen Coffee Gardens for lunch (at traveler’s expense).

After lunch we will visit the nearby Giraffe Center and have a completely up close and personal interaction with the endangered Rothschild giraffes, as well as feeding them from an elevated platform. Then we visit the beautiful Kazuri pearl factory which employs disadvantaged members of Kenyan society, especially single mothers.

Kazuri means "small and beautiful" and that's exactly the kind of pearls they produce here. The mission of the factory is to provide sustainable employment for local women in Nairobi and to contribute to the fair-trade market. After the trip, we return to the hotel arriving in the evening. 𝑶𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒏𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕 𝒂𝒕 𝑭𝒂𝒊𝒓𝒎𝒐𝒖𝒏𝒕 𝑯𝒐𝒕𝒆𝒍. 𝑴𝒆𝒂𝒍 𝑷𝒍𝒂𝒏: 𝑩𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒌𝒇𝒂𝒔𝒕. 

After breakfast, check out and you shall be transferred to Wilson Airport for your flight to the world’s renowned Masai Mara National Game Reserve arriving for check in and lunch. The perfect base for your exclusive Safari adventure is the Neptune Mara Rianta Luxury Tented Camp. Nestled in the heart of the Masai Mara. Immersed in the original bush among indigenous plantations and trees, the 20 luxury tents are directly overlooking the Mara River, which winds itself around the camp with gently flowing waters surrounded with wildlife and teeming with large groups of Hippos. In the afternoons you will enjoy several game drives in this remarkable game area. Throughout the year the Maasai Mara is a place of natural drama, a kaleidoscope of color and life. The famed "Big Five" - elephant, rhino, lion, leopard and buffalo - roam the reserve, together with hundreds of other species, from the fastest animal on earth, the cheetah to crocodiles and magnificent birds of prey.

Enjoy full game drives for these two days in Mara. Depending on the time of year, you may see large herds of wildebeests during the migration, elephants drinking at waterholes, or lions resting in the tall grass. Your guide will share insights into the wildlife, ecosystems, and history of the Mara, ensuring a richer understanding of the environment.

Around midday, you’ll set up for a picnic lunch in a designated area inside the park. Enjoy a delicious, freshly prepared lunch with beautiful views of the Mara. The food can range from packed sandwiches, salads, and fresh fruit to hot meals, depending on your tour package. This is a relaxed and memorable experience, eating in the midst of the wild, surrounded by the sounds and sights of nature.
After lunch, take a short drive to Maasai village, located near the reserve. The Maasai are one of Kenya’s most iconic communities, known for their colorful attire, distinct customs, and rich history. 𝑶𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒏𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕 𝒂𝒕 𝑴𝒂𝒓𝒂 𝑹𝒊𝒂𝒏𝒕𝒂 𝑳𝒖𝒙𝒖𝒓𝒚 𝑻𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒅 𝑪𝒂𝒎𝒑. 𝑴𝒆𝒂𝒍 𝑷𝒍𝒂𝒏: 𝑩𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒌𝒇𝒂𝒔𝒕, 𝑳𝒖𝒏𝒄𝒉, 𝑫𝒊𝒏𝒏𝒆𝒓.

After breakfast in the Lodge, check-out and you will be transferred to the airstrip for your flight to Amboseli National Park via Nairobi. On arrival, proceed to the lodge for lunch with game drive enroute. The Lodge is Set against the magnificent backdrop of Africa's highest mountain, the glittering Mount Kilimanjaro.

Amboseli is a place of stark contrast, the name meaning “salty dust” in Maasai. Amboseli, despite its sometimes dry and dusty appearance, has an endless supply of water filtered through thousands of feet of volcanic rock from Mt. Kilimanjaro’s snow melt. These underground streams converge into clear freshwater springs in the heart of the park. If you are lucky, you may get to see the shimmering dry lakebed with false mirages of populated horizons.

Do not miss the dawn game drives, when the plains are golden with the new day’s sun and the predators are most active. This is truly a magical time. 𝑶𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒏𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕 𝒂𝒕 𝑻𝒂𝒘𝒊 𝑳𝒐𝒅𝒈𝒆. 𝑴𝒆𝒂𝒍 𝑷𝒍𝒂𝒏: 𝑩𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒌𝒇𝒂𝒔𝒕, 𝑳𝒖𝒏𝒄𝒉, 𝑫𝒊𝒏𝒏𝒆𝒓.

Full day in Amboseli National Park with morning and afternoon game viewing drives. Up at dawn – the Amboseli plains are golden with the new day’s sun. This is also the time that the lions go on their hunts. Every turn will bring a new wildlife surprise. Elephant are a dominant presence in Amboseli. Here, you are able to spot some of the older “tuskers” lumbering almost delicately before the backdrop of highest free-standing mountain in the world - Mount Kilimanjaro. Herds of zebra and wildebeest are easily seen. Amboseli is also the home to Cape Buffalo, hippo, eland, giraffe, as well as cheetah. 𝑶𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒏𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕 𝒂𝒕 𝑻𝒂𝒘𝒊 𝑳𝒐𝒅𝒈𝒆. 𝑴𝒆𝒂𝒍 𝑷𝒍𝒂𝒏: 𝑩𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒌𝒇𝒂𝒔𝒕, 𝑳𝒖𝒏𝒄𝒉, 𝑫𝒊𝒏𝒏𝒆𝒓.

Breakfast in the Lodge. Later we depart and drive back to Nairobi, on arrival we proceed to Carnivore Restaurant for lunch / dinner (at traveler’s expense). Meats are roasted on traditional Maasai swords over a huge charcoal pit that dominates the restaurant's entrance. The rough-hewn beams combine the rustic feel of a rural setting with that of a medieval banqueting hall. The Carnivore doesn't conform to the familiar restaurant traditions.  After dinner, we shall transfer you to the airport for your flight back home. 𝑴𝒆𝒂𝒍 𝑷𝒍𝒂𝒏: 𝑩𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒌𝒇𝒂𝒔𝒕
